I love popcorn but haven't eaten any for decades. I have diverticulosis
and my DO told me no popcorn, seeds, etc. Since then I've read that this
is true and also that this ban is just nonsense.

Opinions?

TIA

My dad has that and eats it sometimes. And sometimes he suffers.

I'm firmly convinced it was popcorn that landed me in the hospital for a
week with a massive infection. I hadn't eaten popcorn in years. My
mother ate popcorn every night and she insisted I share some with her.
Big mistake. I'll never eat it again.

We have gotten that at Whole Foods for quite a while. (Actually,
most recently, my daughter has been eating "Black Cat" (IIRC), and
she likes that better.)

Wow! I can't imagine anything better than this! I will for sure have to
look for that.
